Two residents managed to get out of their burning home in Northeast Portland on Tuesday but at least two of their pets died.

The fire was reported at 8:35 a.m. at 1934 N.E. Clackamas St. Two people were home at the time, said Deputy Chief John Nohr of Portland Fire and Rescue. Alerted by smoke detectors, they managed to get out without being injured.

Two cats died, Nohr said. Residents had two additional cats, two dogs and a lizard.

The fire began in the basement and spread to the back side of the first floor. The flames are now out.
